Economy crash =/= stock market crash?

Today's CPI means we'll get more aggressive rate rises, which will kill the economy, which will lead to fiscal loosening, which will lead to a melt up, which will lead to the 80% crash.

You have just described the standard cycle which happens over and over again, so far without leading to an 80% crash. I am always expecting a 50% crash in equities at some point but 80% seems to be pushing it.

There might not be a pause in September ? So 0.5% a month for now but 3.5% is still the target on the rates. As I've just posted we aren't far away. We can only see.
The melt up might be on the cards if the cycles are to be believed ? This of course could last years yet.? 80% crash doesn't really fit from even 5000 on the SP 500 that would take it to 1000 which is back to 1995 levels. Stretching it a bit there.

TINA is over.

"There Is No Alternative" to investing in equities and bonds.


Investors will soon realise that times have changed.

Interesting. With the US national debt at about $28,000bn, about two thirds of the debt is corporate/private debt, the sort that could leave the lender facing a default if the borrower cannot pay it. Some of it will be secured on property, but not a good time to be holding it as an investor as interest rates make rolling it over prohibitively expensive.

They only came out of lockdown a couple of weeks ago. This weekend's exercise is for mass testing. I haven't seen anything relating to what they intend to do next week.
